Food Allergies Worsen Cost of Living for Impacted Individuals

An estimated 32 million Americans, including 26 million adults and 5.6 million minors, live with a food allergy. For many of these Americans, their day-to-day lives involve avoiding certain foods that can trigger moderate to severe allergic reactions. However, subsisting on such a restricted diet can be pretty costly, especially if affected persons are allergic to a range of foods. As the cost of living increases amid global supply chain issues and inflation, people with food allergies are experiencing even higher living costs than those without allergies. Data collected by the Allergy Team has revealed that families living on restricted…

New Model Sheds Light on Patterns of Infectious Illnesses

The COVID-19 pandemic was a major reminder of just how problematic infectious diseases can be, especially if we aren’t intimately aware of their spread patterns. Only a few months after the disease was discovered in Wuhan, China, significant chunks of the world were shut down to avoid mass infections that would place undue strain on their medical systems. Even though we are now out of the eye of the storm, it is important that we understand how such infectious diseases behave to prevent future pandemics. Fortunately, a new modeling approach capable of accounting for contact patterns between different age groups…

Study Finds Boosting White Blood Cell Counts May Improve Treatment Outcomes

Glioblastoma is an aggressive type of brain and spinal cord cancer that typically affects brain tissues, usually the frontal and temporal lobes of the brain. Treatment options for the debilitating brain cancer tend to lower white blood cell counts for six months to a year, which inadvertently impacts patient survival rates. Scientists and researchers have tried to determine the specific cause of this extended drop in white blood cell levels and its impact on survivability for years with little success. New research from the St. Louis Washington University School of Medicine has now revealed one probable reason for the lower…

Global Clinical Guidelines to Prevent, Manage Cardiac Complications Among Pediatric Cancer Patients Published

Researchers from the Murdoch Children’s Research Institute in Melbourne have recently published the first-ever clinical guidelines to help prevent and address cardiac complications in pediatric cancer patients who are currently undergoing treatment.  A growing body of research has revealed in recent years that pediatric cancer patients face a significant risk of developing additional medical complications later in life. Some of the treatments used to address tumors, such as radiation therapy, can be quite damaging to healthy cells. Even grown adults suffer side effects such as anemia, appetite loss, fatigue, bruising, bleeding, and hair loss.  For children, these treatments can disrupt…

How Emotional Support, Service Dogs Differ

Although emotional support and service dogs may seem similar to the uninformed viewer, there are several critical differences between these two types of dogs. Dogs have been man's best friend for thousands of years, sticking with humans since the early days of cave painting and stone tools, through the middle ages, the industrial revolution and into the modern age.
